Saudi Production Turns Camels into Assets
The number of camels participating in the "Saudi Production" races at the Crown Prince Hajj Festival 2026, organized by the Saudi Hajj Union at the Taif Racecourse, has exceeded 1,600 camels. This reflects the successful support of local production and the enhancement of the market value of domestically bred camels. The number of participants in the Hayyak category reached 989 camels, and it is expected that the number of camels in the Likaia category will surpass 700. Additionally, around 100 camels are anticipated to compete in the Festival Cup race next Tuesday. The festival aims to empower local producers and strengthen the status of national bloodlines. It is the largest globally in terms of the number of camels participating, with prize money exceeding 50 million riyals. The event is part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 to boost economic activity and sporting events within the Hajj sector.
